In any artihmetic sequence, consecutive terms differ by a fixed constant c. So given the first term a, the second term is a + c, the third terms is a + 2c, and so on, up to the n-th term a + (n - 1)c.
If the 15th term is 40, then
40 = -12 + (15 - 1) c ==> c = 52/14 = 26/7
We can then write the n-th term as
-12 + (n - 1) 26/7 = (26n - 110)/7
The sum of the first 15 terms is then
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{15}\frac{26n-110}7 = \frac{26}7\sum_{n=1}^{15}n - \frac{110}7\sum_{n=1}^{15}n = \boxed{210}[/tex]
Another way to compute the sum: let S denote the sum,
S = -12 - 58/7 - 32/7 + … + 228/7 + 254/7 + 40
Reverse the order of terms:
S* = 40 + 254/7 + 228/7 + … - 32/7 - 58/7 - 12
Notice that adding up terms in the same position gives the same result,
-12 + 40 = 28
-58/7 + 254/7 = 28
-32/7 + 228/7 = 28
so that
S + S* = 2S = 28 + 28 + 28 + … + 28 + 28 + 28
There are 15 terms in the sum, so
2S = 15×28 ==> S = 15×28/2 = 210

Answer:
x = 8
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the following system of equations by graphing. Label the solution and all intercepts.
4x-2y=8
y=1/2x+2
Please show me also how to graph it. Thanks a ton!
Answer:
(4,4)
y = 4
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to input y = 1/2x + 2 into 4x - 2y = 8.
4x - 2 (1/2x + 2) = 8 <-- Then solve
4x - 1x + -4 = 8
3x - 4 = 8
+4 +4
---------------------
3x = 12
3 3
x = 4
Now we need to use x and apply it to find y.
y = 1/2x + 2
y = 1/2(4) + 2
y = 2 + 2
y = 4
Now to graph go on the x axis (horizontal axis) and go to 4, then up 4 on the y axis.
You need to graph the point (4,4).
I hope this helps!
Answer:
see graph (4,4)
to manually graph just pick any two values for X in the first equation and calculate the corresponding Y value ... put a "dot" (a point on the graph)
do for both points , and draw al LINE between them...
repeat fore the second equation... the "solution" is where the two lines cross

evaluate and solve: y + 3 = –y + 9
The value of y is 3.
Answer:
Solution given;
: y + 3 = –y + 9
add +y on both term
y+y+3=-y+y+9
subtract both side by 3
2y+3-3=9-3
2y=6
divide both side by 2
2y/2=6/2
y=3
Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 3 = –y + 9
Add y to each side
y+y + 3 = –y +y+ 9
2y +3 = 9
Subtract 3 from each side
2y+3-3 = 9-3
2y = 6
Divide by 2
2y/2 = 6/2
y = 3
△ABCis reflected to form △A′B′C′. The vertices of △ABC are A(3, 1), B(1, 5), and C(6, 9). The vertices of △A′B′C′ are A′(−1, −3), B′(−5, −1), and C′(−9, −6). Which reflection results in the transformation of △ABC to △A′B′C′? Reflection across the x-axis reflection across the y-axis reflection across y = x reflection across y=−x I NEED HELP PLS The answer choies are: A. Reflection across the x-axis B. Reflection across the y-axis C. Reflection across y = x D. Reflection across y=−x
Answer: D) reflection across y = -x
Explanation:
When we reflect over y = x, we basically swap x and y. So for instance, the point (3,1) becomes (1,3).
When reflecting over y = -x, we will do the same thing but we'll make each coordinate swap in sign from positive to negative (or vice versa). The rule for reflecting over y = -x is [tex](x,y) \to (-y,-x)[/tex]
So if we apply that rule to point A(3,1) then it becomes A ' (-1, -3).
Similarly, B(1,5) moves to B ' (-5, -1)
Finally, C(6,9) becomes C ' (-9, -6)
In a triangle ABC, angle BAC = 53° and angle ACB = 28°. If AB is produced to D, find angle CBD.
Angle CBD= 81°
I hope it helps you...
Answer:
81
Step-by-step explanation:
∠CBD is the exterior angle of the ΔABC.
Exterior angle property:
Exterior angle equals the sum of opposite interior angles.
∠CBD = ∠ABC + ∠ACB
= 53 + 28
= 81°

Answer:
16 direct
17 indirect
Step-by-step explanation:
16.
If it is a direct variation
y/x = constant
4/-2 -2
-8/4 = -2
-12/6 = -2
This is a direct variation
17.
y/x = -1/2 /-2 = 1/4
y/x = -1/-1 = 1
This is not a direct variation
If it is an indirect variation then
yx = constant
-1/2 * -2 = 1
-1*-1 =1
3 * 1/3 =1
This is an indirect variation
Captain Liz is going to load her cruise ship with bags of sugar. She has room for 19 bags of sugar. She has allotted for 121 pounds of sugar on her ship. She can choose from 7-pound bags (the variable s) or 10-pound bags (the variable p). Which equations would be a constraint to Captain Liz maximizing her sugar load?
Correct answers with explanations will earn you brainliest :)
Answer:
[tex]19 = s + p[/tex] and [tex]121 = 7s + 10p[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First we use constraints given by the problem to set up two equations:
We can only have a total of 19 bags, so:
[tex]19 = s + p[/tex]
Then, we want to maximize her sugar load. Using the info on the weight of each bag and the max carrying capacity:
[tex]121 = 7s + 10p[/tex]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sugar from 7 pound bags be represented by = s
And let the sugar from 10 pound bags be represented by = p
As given, Captain Liz has room for 19 bags of sugar.
This becomes [tex]s+p=19[/tex] .......(1)
Also given is , she has room for 19 bags of sugar, so equation becomes:
[tex]7s+10p=121[/tex] ............(2)
Hence, these are the correct equations.

#Dhruv here2. What are the last 2 digits of 1 + 2 + 3 + + 2005 2006
Let S be the sum. So you have
S = 1 + 2 + 3 + … + 2004 + 2005 + 2006
as well as
S = 2006 + 2005 + 2004 + … + 3 + 2 + 1
Then
2S = (1 + 2006) + (2 + 2005) + … + (2005 + 2) + (2006 + 1)
2S = 2007 + 2007 + … + 2007 + 2007
2S = 2006 × 2007
S = (2006 × 2007)/2

Find the missing side or angle.
Round to the nearest tenth.
b=3
a=9
c=11
C= ?
Answer:
C=125°
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
To find angle C, we can use the cosine law:
[tex]cosC=\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2ab}[/tex]
Plug in the given information
[tex]cosC=\frac{9^2+3^2-11^2}{2(9)(3)}[/tex]
[tex]cosC=\frac{-31}{54}[/tex]
[tex]C=cos^-^1(\frac{-31}{54})[/tex]
[tex]C=cos^-^1(\frac{-31}{54})\\C=125[/tex]
Therefore, angle C is approximately 125 degrees.
